Hi guys, I was wondering if someone could clear something up for me as I've read conflicting information and now  I have a project where I need to know

Hi Ajb

All of my molds are polyester and I have absolutely no problem making epoxy parts, or polyester parts. I have wet layed up and vacuum bagged and infused in the same mold.

Sometimes I wax and use PVA, other times I just wax. I also use a release agent called ChemTrend which I think is about the same as the EZ lease.

One error I used to make in waxing was that I never read the instructions. You must wax buff and then wait for the wax to cure hard before applying the next wax coat. I would wax, buff and right away put on more wax buff and so on until I had 6 coats, or so I thought. What I really had done is wax buff and then when I applyed the second coat on right away I was removing the uncured first coat and so on. When I thought I had six coats, I really only had one coat. This made the part a little hard to release but it would release.

Hope this helps.

Fred

Thanks for that Fred!
